Reunion
Story written on November 8, 2012 by justkeepswimming.
"So…you have security clearance?"
"I have a modest security clearance," Tina explained. "I have the diplomatic rank of a one star general, but no uniform is involved."
"Now that is a shame," Bette said, her mind’s eye wandering to an image only she could envision. "Seeing you in a uniform could bring me to my knees."
"I might be able to do that without the benefit of a uniform," the corners of Tina’s mouth elevated slightly as she made the remark.
"Now, where did that confidence come from?" Bette asked, waving her hand toward Tina. "You are night and day – from shy and reserved one moment to the personification of audacious the next. I don’t know quite what to make of you."
"Talking about work is me in my comfort zone," Tina shrugged. "I’m a natural introvert, but when I’m talking about something where I’m a recognized expert…I guess the confidence spills over."
"I like the confident you," Bette placed her hand on Tina’s knee under the table. "You shouldn’t keep that part of you in the shadows. It’s…exhilarating."
"Even though we met 20 years ago, we’re still getting to know each other," Tina suggested, curling her fingers through Bette’s. The heat from Bette’s palm penetrated Tina’s jeans and traveled at will to undisclosed locations. "That’s a unique circumstance."
"To have a history together, and yet have so much left to learn," Bette articulated further what Tina was saying.
"Always a pleasure to have you here, Dr. Kennard," the server set the receipt on the table for Tina’s signature. "Don’t hesitate to let me know if there’s something else I can get for either one of you."
The server’s departure was as stealth as her arrival.
"How did you do that? They didn’t even bring the bill," Bette offered a gentle squeeze to Tina’s knee as she asked the question.
"Likely the same way you did it the other night at the gallery," Tina replied. "I know people here."
She disengaged her hand from Bette’s to sign the receipt.
"It’s almost one thirty," Bette said. "I’d love to visit all afternoon, but I know you said you’d be back by two."
"We both have work to do," Tina agreed.
Bette shifted off the bench and reached for Tina’s hand as she made her way to the edge for the same exit. Bette continued to hold her hand briefly, and then thought better of it and let their fingers fall apart as they walked side by side to the front of the restaurant. She helped Tina with her coat as one of the servers waited to help with hers.
Bette reached to open the door and silently encouraged Tina to step over the threshold. And further into the future that was looking brighter with every moment they spent together.

Swimmie 🐠😋 absolutely love this. I 💗 Canada!!!! Yay Obama!!! This week is the bomb. Thank you 😘
Nice conversation at lunch. Tina’s a sexy nerd geek nuclear physicist with a kick ass body…I like it. Does she have an E=mc2 tattoo?
What a night!…
smart, confident and sexy…where can i find someone like that? LOL
Far too short…but very nice lunch date. Thanks.
Interesting that Bette is backing off a little, even as they’re making strides. Thanks for posting. :)
Delicious. Making one waiting for more, just like Bette.
Another wonderful update. Thank you.
Thanks JKS!! So yummy chapter!! (-: LOL… Very sweet and hot somehow.
I’m looking forward to their dinner date. Is Bette going to speed read Stephen Hawking books? Will they make it to the restaurant? Will Tina cancel the reservation and cook for Bette instead? Will Bette be rendered speechless? Will they secretly worry about falling too deeply during the short time they have together? Whose core will have a nuclear level meltdown? Can’t wait to find out!
